Partendo da Armonie in Corte con una buona colazione/merenda a base di prodotti tipici locali, si pedala lungo la strada per San Giacomo Vercellese dopo aver puntato l'attenzione sui nidi di cicogne che si trovano subito all'inizio del percorso. Si costeggia quindi il Circuito di Balocco (o più correttamente Centro Sperimentale Balocco) un complesso di circuiti automobilistici costruito nel 1962 dall'Alfa Romeo e oggi di proprietà di Fiat Chrysler Automobiles.
Il Canale Cavour
Si prosegue quindi in direzione Villarboit tra le risaie del riso DOP di Baraggia fino a incrociare il Canale Cavour, costruito a supporto dell'agricoltura (in particolare della coltura del riso) che trae origine dal Po a Chivasso (TO) e termina scaricandosi nel Ticino nel comune di Galliate (NO). La sua lunghezza totale è pari a quasi 83 km ed è il terzo canale italiano per lunghezza, dopo il canale Emiliano Romagnolo ed il canale Villoresi. All'imbocco ha una portata massima di 110 m³/s, che ad est del Sesia si riduce ad 85 m³/s. Il nome ricorda Camillo Benso di Cavour, che ne fu promotore.
Con una deviazione verso Albano Vercellese, pedalando tra le risaie fino a lambire il Parco Naturale delle Lame del Sesia, si riattraversa il Canale Cavour raggiungendo il comune di Arborio, dove agli affreschi dell'oratorio di San Sebastiano raccontano di tradizioni artistiche e contadine molto antiche, il centro mantiene la forma, almeno in parte, degli antichi ricetti medievali e gli stucchi raccontano le vicende settecentesche della parrocchiale di San Martino. Ma il nome stesso del paese, che deriva dal cognome della famiglia medievale vercellese che aveva possedimenti terrieri qui, racconta il legame forte con il riso.
In azienda agricola
Qui ad Arborio la giovane azienda agricola Zanazzo Marco accoglie turisti, appassionati di territorio e tanti abitanti locali nel cuore della produzione del riso della Baraggia vercellese. L'azienda fonda la sua tradizione sull’esperienza di tre generazioni di agricoltori succedutisi nella coltivazione del riso. Ben ancorata alla esperienza del passato, si avvale però di moderne tecnologie per la coltivazione, essiccazione e stoccaggio del risone prodotto, nel pieno rispetto dei requisiti standard di prevenzione e sicurezza. Nata nel 2009, grazie ai contributi Europei del Piano di Sviluppo Rurale con le misure di Insediamento Giovani ed Ammodernamento delle Aziende Agricole, rappresenta una sintesi di tradizione e modernità.
Passando per il santuario della “Madonna delle Grazie” o “Madonna della Cintura”, ma comunemente chiamata dagli arboriesi “Madonna del Bosco”, ci si dirige verso San Giacomo Vercellese, per fare rientro a Buronzo

All around you, you will see the immensity of the vineyards and hazelnut groves that represent the real flagship of Monferrato Area.
How to visit Montegrosso d’Asti
Montegrosso preserves an ancient medieval village located on the top of the hill. Right in the ancient center, the feudal castle stands out imposingly, built in 1134, a true work of engineering for the time.
Our journey starts from the “Enoteca dei Colli Astiani”, a reference point in the area for over 20 years for all lovers of good wine.
The route will wind between the hills of Monferrato and Langhe through splendid scenery.
You pedal almost immediately on a slope to reach the "crest" of the surrounding hills and enjoy the best landscapes.

Calosso
Continuing the ride "on the crest" you will arrive at the ancient village of Calosso, also perched on a hill dominating the surrounding landscape.
This town is made famous by the Rapulè Festival which takes place every year on the third weekend of October, when the harvest comes to an end.
During this event it is possible to wander through the streets of the historic center tasting the typical dishes of Piedmontese cuisine, combined with sensational wine tastings.
In Calosso, the fortified wall that houses the ancient medieval castle certainly stands out.
This imposing structure has had a rather troubled history over the centuries and has undergone numerous destructions and alterations.
Agliano Terme and Retourn
Continuing along the route you will reach the town of Agliano Terme, a town famous for its wine landscapes and, as the name itself says, for its small spa.
You will reach the highest point of the town, characterized by a large square with an excellent view and the majestic tower of the ancient castle.
The castle of Agliano Terme was destroyed in the first half of the seventeenth century during the struggle between the Duke of Savoy and the Spaniards for the succession of Monferrato.
Today the tower remains of the mighty castle, which can be visited and owned by the aqueduct.
The top of the building is a privileged vantage point for observing the hills of the Province of Asti.
Going down towards the valley you will pass in front of the thermal station.
In 1770 a spring with a particular smell was discovered in a field of Agliano.
Subsequent chemical-physical analyzes confirmed the presence of sulfur and other substances in what the locals called "rotten water".
Right in that place, a hotel was built that began to welcome tourists right away and, later, everything became a spa.
Continuing along this flat road, the route will bring you back to the “Enoteca dei Colli Astiani” from where the tour started.

TARQUINIA / SANTA SEVERA
After ten routes inland, between hills and mountains, the GTL15 returns to the sea, this time north of Rome: it is a simple and quiet stage, about fifty km almost all on the plain, sheltered by the coastal chain of the Tolfa Mountains. This stage follows the course of the future Tyrrhenian Cycle Route, of which there are only a few small sections, following the course of the busy Via Aurelia in parallel and taking advantage of its coplanar and secondary roads. From Tarquinia we lose the remaining altitude by gaining the coast, and from there we head south: on our route, pleasant seaside resorts such as Tarquinia Lido and Santa Marinella, as well as important ports such as Civitavecchia. The track winds around the new Aurelia trying to avoid it in every way, now on the seafront of the villages crossed, often already equipped with safe cycle paths, now on the roads of the hinterland. Our destination, Santa Severa, is embellished by the scenic Castle, which stands right on the sea, on what was the ancient site of Pyrgi, an Etruscan settlement.

ANGUILLARA / ROME THE VIA FRANCIGENA AND THE VEIO PARK
The last stage of the GTL (or the first, if you decide to leave northwards: it is not one-way!) largely exploits the route of the Via Francigena, in the last stretch of the long journey of the pilgrims who arrived in the Holy City. From Anguillara we pass through roads with little traffic near Lake Martignano – depending on the season, it will be more or less pleasant to stop for a swim – and then follow the course of the Cremera stream to the beautiful Sorbo Valley, where the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Sorbo stands. From here we can follow the GPS track and the sporadic indications of the Francigena up to the Veio Park, a city conquered by the Romans in the royal period, whose traces remain in an important archaeological site. We continue our journey towards the city through green patches and streams, along paths that are sometimes bumpy but always fascinating, up to the village of Isola Farnese and the Mola Waterfalls. At this point we still follow the course of the Cremera through secondary roads up to the point where it plunges into the Tiber becoming a tributary: we are now at the gates of the GRA, which we cross with an underpass, and in the northern suburbs of the capital: the entrance to the center is the task of the Tiber ridge, a cycle artery that runs along the river offering unexpected Roman views, from a perspective where traffic does not arrive. The routes to enter Rome include sections of Eurovelo 5 and Eurovelo 7.

TOWARDS THE APENNINES: THE IMPERIAL VILLAS, FROM HADRIAN TO NERO.
with the eighth stage, the GTL shifts into lighter gears and pushes into a new environment, never touched before: the mountains. The Lazio region is an Apennine mountain, rough, genuine, which despite not reaching the altitudes of the Alps knows how to offer the cyclist panoramic roads of incredible beauty. From Zagarolo we head north for this stage of approach to the Tiburtini Mountains, only 39 km for a slightly uphill altimetric trend: our destination is in fact Tivoli, but to get there we have to pass a couple of valleys, cross the beautiful villages of Gallicano, Casape and San Gregorio di Sassola, along winding and swinging roads sheltered by the shade of the woods. After crossing the A24 motorway, the last kilometers before Tivoli are gradually ascending through the vineyards. Once we reach our destination, a number of archaeological and tourist sites of world importance leave us spoiled for choice: if the most famous of the attractions remains Hadrian's Villa, the private residence of the Roman emperor of the same name, Villa d'Este and Villa Gregoriana and their fountains offer an incomparable spectacle. The Aniene also passes through Tivoli, which after being born in the Simbruini mountains crosses this city immediately before throwing itself headlong into the scenic waterfalls, and then calming down and flowing into the Tiber in Rome
